comprised of documentary photographs and sketches by Michael Szpakowski. This
is both an artwork and a review of an exhibition by Annie Abrahams, Training
for a Better World. On 28th October 2011 Michael travelled to S�te in the
South of France to see and to review her show. "What was particularly
pleasing about going to the press view and then staying on for the opening
proper was the opportunity to engage with the work over quite a long period
of time - some four hours."</p><p><img src="" alt="" title=""></p><hr><h2>Recent

Egenhoefer</a></h3><p>About 8 years ago I came up with the idea to have a
science fair for artists.� Last night it happened. <br><br>The
Science Fair is a common elementary school experience for kids in the United
States. Each student picks a scientific topic to investigate, conducts
research and experiments, then presents their findings in a display. All the
displays are presented together in a show-and-tell extravaganza with cookies
and punch while judges award ribbons and prizes. At the heart of these
projects students learn the �Scientific Method� of defining a question or
concept, gathering information and observations, forming a hypothesis,
conducting experiments and processes, analyzing data, and drawing a
conclusion.</p><h3><a href="http://www.furtherfield.org/blog/helen-varley-jamieson/performing-across-13-hour-time-difference" target="_blank">Performing across a 13 hour time difference . By Helen Varley
Jamieson</a></h3><p>This summer i am going home to new zealand for a visit;
it's going to be part holiday and part work, as we will perform make-shift a
number of times over december-january. make-shift is a networked performance
by myself and paula crutchlow that connects audiences in two domestic houses
in separate geographical locations with an online audience. i will be in the
middle of the southern summer, with everyone on holiday and in total beach
mode; meanwhile paula will be in the uk, 13 hours behind and in the depths of
winter. thus, scheduling performances is a little ... challenging, shall we
say!</p><h3><a href="http://www.furtherfield.org/blog/rachel-beth-egenhoefer/hypothesis-art-science-fair" target="_blank">BYOB Chicago: jonCates, Digital Arts Collector - jonCates
(2011)</a></h3><p>The Business Card feels to me like an old-fashioned format
for interpersonal interactions, like an antique form of communication or
rather (self) promotion from an earlier era. at a recent conference I was
often asked for my business card (which i do not normally carry or even
maintain current versions of) and presented w/a range of business cards from
academics and artists. i found receiving these cards both novel and strange.
this experience combined w/my invitation to participate in this most recent
BYOB Chicago iteration of the ongoing series/platform. the BYOB Worldwide
project initiated by Rafa�l Rozendaal relies on Salon-style 'hanging' of the
projections, social networks and networking and recent Web 2.0
technologies/platforms (such as tumblr, which the BYOB Worldwide site exists
on and through). this intersection of very recent technologies and the turn
of the second to last century approaches (late 1800's/early 1900's Academic
Art exhibition formats) strikes me as similarly novel and strange, like
business cards from New Media Artists and academics.<br><br> CONTEXT: <a href="http://www.byobworldwide.com/tagged/chicago_mca" target="_blank">BYOB (Bring Your Own

Mobile Phone Technology</a></h3><p><img src="" alt="" title="" style=""></p><p>On the 26th October 2011,
Marc Garrett (from Furtherfield) was invited to lecture students at
Westminster University, currently studying 'MA in Museums, Galleries and
Contemporary Culure. <br><br> View the various essays by the students in
response to the presentation and lecture.<br><br> The brief was - To
understand contemporary media art practice. Exploring the ideas, social
contexts, and relationship with the technology (used) is essential. One can
only develop critical skills through a process of being analytical, observing
and critiquing not only our relationship with technology culturally, socially
and historically, but also see beyond mainstream presumptions around it.
Artists using technology possess varied skills which include technological,
theoretical and practical insight. As a critical thinker on the subject, one
has to unearth these attributes as well as understand other meanings
communicated by the artists using digital media technologies. <br><br></p>
